Friendship is one of the basic bonds between human beings. While the characteristics of friendship might vary from one country to another, people from all cultures not only enjoy friends but need them.
Many studies have shown that teenagers who have no friends often suffer from psychological disorders. It has been shown that teenagers, perhaps more than any other age group, need companionship and a sense of belonging. The negative consequences of loneliness have also been observed among the elderly. The death of a spouse often leaves a widow or a widower totally bereft. If, however, they are surrounded by friends and relatives and if they are able to articulate their feelings, they are more likely to recover from their grief.
"No man is an island." In other words, we are all parts of society. We all need the love, admiration, respect and moral support of other people. If we are fortunate, our friends will provide us with all of these necessary aspects of life.
As most people observe, there are many levels of friendship. The degree or intensity of friendship varies depending on the personality of the individuals involved and the context of the relationships. Extroverts enjoy being surrounded by many people whereas introverts are perhaps content with fewer but more intense friendships.
Everyone is not equally open with all their friends. The degree of intimacy is determined by many factors. Close friends can be formed at any stage in one’s life but they are usually very rare. Not very many people have more than a few really close friends. Irrespective of the level of intimacy, all friendships are based on reciprocity, honesty and a certain amount of love and affection.
The word "irrespective"(Last sentence, Para. 5)means______.
选项
A、not respecting
B、dishonoring
C、regardless
D、considering
答案
C
解析
词汇题。“irrespective”(第五段最后一句)这个词语的意思是“不论,不考虑”。见最后一句,“Irrespective of the level of intimacy, all friendships are based on…”。不论亲密的程度如何,任何友谊都是建立在互惠、诚实和一定的友爱和关怀的基础之上的。根据上下文,可推测出这个词语的意思是“不论,不考虑”。所以C为正确答案。
